I remember when Napster was a thing in high school. The thought of being able to listen to any song you wanted at any given time (even with dial-up internet speed) was an awakening for me. What else is possible? It felt like anything was possible right there and then. Fast-forward a few years, and we are experiencing the electrification of almost everything. The first electric device I got was an edge trimmer; pressing a button to turn it on without pulling a cable and filling it with oil and gas was the same feeling I had in high school. Fast-forward to today in the world of Apple Music (I know, I'm not a Spotify user) and everything electric. The parallels to the digital world are strong. Before using digital Gift Cards, Bradley and the team went out of their way to buy physical Gift Cards from retailers - time-consuming and generic. Just as I've said goodbye to radio and service stations, the team at Tank Stream Labs has said hello to custom-branded digital Gift Cards—and neither of us is turning back. If you'd like to learn how to take your Gift Cards into the digital age, contact the team, and we can get you running in days. #giftcards #poweredbykarta #partnerships

If your grandmother bought you an iTunes gift card for your birthday, you would probably find a way to spend it, even if you weren't necessarily in the market for new music or paid apps. Now, imagine your grandmother buys you a gift card every year, and the balance will expire if you don't use it. Oh, and let's say the gift card is for $3 million. If we substitute Microsoft Azure for iTunes, this is essentially the situation many healthcare organizations find themselves in. Over the past few years, many healthcare organizations have devoted large amounts of money to Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) agreements. In many cases, they're not using nearly all the capacity they've paid for. https://lnkd.in/gd2WttZr #healthcare #healthcareinnovations #healthcaretechnology #technology #innovation #healthcaresystems #hospitals #physicians #maac #laborshortage #applications

"𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒄𝒂𝒏'𝒕 𝒅𝒆𝒑𝒆𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒏 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒆𝒚𝒆𝒔 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒊𝒎𝒂𝒈𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒊𝒔 𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝒇𝒐𝒄𝒖𝒔." - 𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑻𝒘𝒂𝒊𝒏 I break a lot of rules in business. I encourage my team to break rules too. I don't believe in being outside the box. I believe in having no box at all. "We've always done it that way" "I don't know why we do that, but we should keep doing it" "What if it goes wrong?" These statements are like nails on a chalkboard to me. These statements are symptoms of a more serious issue. In this situation Wyle E. Coyote might have a freeze frame moment that read "limitedus imaginationis". Trying to run a business with no imagination is dangerous. It leads to no growth, no new audiences, and usually... no improvement. Remember Clear Pepsi? How about McPizza? The Amazon Fire Phone? Swings and misses. But at least there was creativity. Each of these ideas were attempts to reach a new audience. "But James, banking must stay in the box," some of my advisors say, "just stay the course." Right. Starbucks has more money in gift card balances than many depository institutions. Staying the course is not an option. Imagination helps bridge the gap between where your business is today and where it needs to be 5 years from now. If you take some swings, you will inevitably miss. Or you can just watch while others swing. The car. The iPhone. Digital music. These things are home runs. Just like the misses above, it all begins with imagination. Seeing something others don't yet see. At Connects Federal Credit Union ... we're going to take some swings. And while I would love to have more ideas pan out like digital music rather than McPizza, we won't always hit the home run. But we won't stop using our imagination. What if ... It's Wednesday... LET'S GO! #letsgo #imagination #wednesdaymotivation
